How much time do I have to file a wrongful death claim in Minnesota?

The time you have to file a claim is known as the statute of limitations. In Minnesota, the statute of limitations for a wrongful death claim is 3 years from the date of injury (death). It is very important that you speak with a personal injury defense attorney immediately after the death of a loved one if you believe that their death was caused by the negligence or fault of another to ensure that you do not miss the statutory timeline requirements to bring a wrongful death claim in Minnesota.
